Recent Performance Trends


The St. Louis Blues have shown a mixed bag of results in their recent outings, demonstrating resilience and adaptability on the ice. With a victory against the New Jersey Devils where they showcased a strong defensive game, allowing no goals against and securing a win with three goals scored, their confidence is likely high. This win was backed by an impressive goaltending performance, boasting a 100 percent save rate from 31 shots faced.


However, consistency remains a challenge for the team as seen in their past games; despite scoring five goals against the New York Rangers and showcasing offensive prowess with 43 shots on goal, they also experienced setbacks such as losing to the New York Islanders where they managed only one goal from 25 shots.

Key Factors to Watch


One area where St. Louis has excelled is in even-strength play, scoring effectively while maintaining solid defense during these periods of play. Their powerplay opportunities haven't been as fruitful recently which could be an area of focus against the Flyers who may look to exploit any weaknesses in special teams play.


Faceoffs have been another critical aspect of their game; winning faceoff battles can significantly impact possession and ultimately control of the game's pace and rhythm. The Blues will need to improve their faceoff win percentage which has seen fluctuations across recent matches.
